Photoshop CC: Cannot see the image when I click on "Open image" once I have selected an image to work on. What am I doing wrong?

Newbie to Photoshop, using Adobe CC on a PC laptop with Windows. I click on File... then open... then select source for the image. Click on the image then open. It brings up a preview window, I then select open image... I then get a black screen, it does show a background layer on the right side and it appears that there is a window open at the top left of the black screen but nothing else shows up. What am I doing wrong? I did just update Photoshop through CC to see if that helped and it made no difference. HELP Please!!
